(PLEASE READ EVERYTHING TRUST ME) I know its a bit of a shot in the dark, however i think it would be very adorable, and potentially game changing if you could get a domesticated dog, doesnt have to be nothing special, but dog food has been in the game since j started playjng like 2 or 3 years ago, but we cant use it to tame dogs or anything, maybe make an option to craft a dog house, with like a 10% chance to get a docile dog to help you kill the dead (again) or even just find ceetain materials such as iron, or rocks or something, or make it to where they can follow you through the post apocholiptic ruins, or even make them tameable, if you have dog food you have a small chance of finding a dog house with a non-hostile dog in it, the only becomes hostile if you hit it, and you can feed it dog food or raw meat, something to tame it, and you have to feed it to keep it healthy, and give it water, and bandages to heal it, i mean we have drones i feel like a dog woulsnt be too big of an ask, the potential increase in ratings and views the game would have would be insane i think, and if they dont, hey you have a tameable dog option in your game, how adorable would it be having a dog run around with you, and i think itd be even better if each dog had like a "quality" measure as well, like make bear dogs or wolf dogs the higest quality but the rarest to get, and something like a boxer or a lab the least rare and easiest to get, and each dog can have like a specific ability, like wolf dogs or bear dogs ability can be fighting, German Sheperds can be finding loot, stuff like that would be game changing, and please for the love of all things holy, MAKE AN OPTION TO PET THE DOG, even if you have to put a morale bar over the dog and once you reach a certain morale is how well the dog listens, like if you have no morale, and as the dog to retrieve like iron per say, it has an increased chance to bring back rock, something like that would be cool, adorable, and funny, and maybe if it isnt too much the ability to once you reach 100% morale maybe give it the ability to find guns, not a huge chance but, a chance none the less, like i said, i know its a big ask but, i think it could be game changing.

Unless they've changed their stance they were pretty against humanoid followers due to the dynamic world always changing and making AI pathing hard. That's why we ended up with a drone.

Oh i wasnt aware of that, thank you for letting me know, i still think its a good idea, it doesnt have to be a follower, it could just be an idle production function, like i said it could just be a machanic to get you a steqdy supply of iron, or rocks or plant fiber or something

The only flaw I can see, is once the dog takes 1 chomp on a zombie or the zombie takes a bite of the dog, it'll get infected with the virus and then it's adiós al perro.

If youve ever watched the Walking dead, which spread similarly to the 7DTD virun by 7DTD lore, the virus doesnt affect humans in the same way it affects animals, so theres not any animal undead, however i see your point, but even the dogs in 7DTD arent zombie dogs, they are dogs that are way to hungry, and since 95% of human population was wiped out, they recieved no type of human interaction, losing there domestication, and becoming Feral like wolves again, they arent zombies, they are just undomesticated and hungry, plus its an unrealistic realistic game, its both, because rotten flesh is just zombie flesh, thr player can eat it and be perfectly fine, and you as a player gets biten all the time but you dont get the infection everytime, so there is ways around it

And yet there are zombie bears in the wasteland, if the virus doesn't affect dogs, then why does it affect bears? It makes zero sense.

I did just remember the birds as well, but it kinda doesnt make sense, birds, dogs, bears, even the huge wolves, but we can get bit like 20 times and be perfectly fine, we get infected but dont turn?

Well, it's something that TFP will have to explain through the storyline about how the virus works, if and whenever they finally add one in the game, cause something's gotta give.. Also, if you liked TWD, you should check out Z Nation, on Tubi.

right now in games the dogs are zombies with bits missing of of them who give rot on death. changing them to be live animals instead of undead ones would be a bit of a walk-back on the canon

Not neccissarily, dear arent zombies, Boars arent zombies, rabbits, snakes, chickens, so itd be the same as the rest i feel like, and it doesnt have to be anything special, or a whole new storyline to explain how a dog is still alive, or a companion just even something like a production function ive said this a couple of times

aside from coyotes and chickens all the corpse-eaters are zombies or have zombie variants. dogs, bears, boars(well, kinda? grace is 100% a zombie but not sure if she counts fully) vultures, wolves, humans.

rabbits, deer and snakes do not have a record of eating human remains(or living humans either) so there is no reason they'd be infected. since they all move fast and avoid people zombies shouldnt be much able to attack them either let alone attack but then leave them mostly uneaten so that they could reanimate properly
